CR-V Vibration
My 2003 CR-V vibrates at around 52 mph.
The vibration is felt thru the steering wheel, but the dealer's quality expert thinks the source is at the rear and, when I ride in the passenger seat, it seems to come from the rear of the vehicle. Dealer has inspected and balanced the wheels/tires twice, rotated wheels/tires, temporarily replaced tires with new tires of the same make, and replaced the drive shaft with no improvement. Most peculiar is that it is much worse on cool mornings when the tires are cold. Greatly reduced, but still noticeable on warm sunny afternoons when the tires are warm. Sounds like tires to me, but all tires have been temporarily switched to new ones with no benefit. Any ideas? Thanks, Carl |

Not tires then, so it has to be something else. Could be a worn or binding CV joint in one of the rear axles. Could be a wheel bearing, but these (according to an earlier post I read) rarely fail. Could also be a slightly out of balance rear prop shaft. Check the unijoints. Stewart DIBBS |

If the weather stayed below freezing then the wheel was out of balance next time we hit the road. Of course by the time the CR/V was in the shop for inspection the ice and muck was gone. My solution last winter was to scrape the residue off when it became a problem. My solution for this year is a set of winter tires on a set of standard steel rims.

Keith,
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I should have said I am in Southern Arizona. No snow, no freeze, plenty of CR-V vibration.
